Story
This handsome boy is Reno, an Australian Kelpie mix that was brought in as a stray to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 1/12. He weighs 36 pounds and is about 2 years old. Reno appears to have been nicely cared for. He knows the sit and paw commands (in fact he will give you both left and right paws). He is very sociable, friendly, affectionate, wants to climb into your lap and will give kisses. He is a charming, gentle, sweet, well-behaved boy who would doubtless make someone a wonderful companion. He does walk well on a leash. He played with several toys and balls in our meet and greet room. Reno is also quite the curious boy. In the yard, he had his nose to the ground and covered pretty much the entire area. He loves treats and takes them quite politely. He sincerely hopes that his stay at the shelter will be a short one and that a new person or family with step forward and adopt or foster and stay committed to him. Reno is a delightfully sweet, loveable and charming boy. He deserves to live as an inside dog spending time with his loving family.

Story
Meet Gusty Smurf, who arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/7. He’s a 3-month-old, 11-pound bundle of puppy enthusiasm and excitement. He is friendly and is OK with being petted however, that’s not until after he has worked through some of that puppy energy! Since his entire life has been in a city shelter, it goes without saying that he will be starting from the beginning with training. His new family members we’ll need plenty of patience and commitment, allow for lots of playtime and exercise in order for them to be ready to fit in with their new person or family. but I have no doubt that all the effort and investment of time will result in devoted, loyal and cherished family members.

Story
Meet Hefty Smurf, an adorable little pup who arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/7. At just 3 months old and weighing 17 pounds, he’s possibly a mix of Aussie Kelpie and Dutch Shepherd, according to my Dog Scanner app. This happy-go-lucky boy is full of energy and fun, loves playing with toys, and enjoyed the treats I gave him. Having spent his whole life in the shelter, he’ll need someone patient to guide his behavior and channel his boundless puppy energy. He doesn’t yet know how to walk on a leash and tends to jump up, but with time, patience, and training, he’s sure to become a devoted and loving member of a family.

Story
Shadow 7-month-old • Female Bright, bouncy, and full of puppy joy — Shadow is a happy, high-energy girl who just wants to play and be close to her people. She’s friendly with strangers, eager to make new friends, and greets the world with enthusiasm and a wagging tail. Shadow has lots of playful energy and would thrive in a home that can give her time, attention, and fun outlets for that puppy spirit. She’s not aggressive at all, just young, excitable, and still learning the ropes. Because of her energy level, she may do best with older kids who can keep up with her playful style. This sweet girl is very people-oriented and forms strong bonds — she loves being near her humans and soaking up affection. With consistency, patience, and love, Shadow has all the potential to grow into an amazing companion. Looking for an active, affectionate pup to grow up with you? Shadow is ready for her fresh start.   Call or email AskRichardsonAnimalServices@cor.gov to learn more.January 21, 2026, 4:09 pm

Story
I got the pet through a friend that lives on a ranch. I fell in love with her soon I met her. She’s 9 months old. I’m looking for someone who will love her as much as we do. I would describe her as friendly, active, exciting, and loving. She will have you laughing with the things she does.
